W-V is supposedly trained for "USER:/ASSISTANT:" but I've found it flexible and able to work with anything that's consistent. For creative writing I'll often do "USER:/STORY:". More than two such tags also work, e.g. I did a rpg-style thing with three characters plus an omniscient narrator, by just describing each of them with their tag in the prompt, and it worked nearly flawlessly. Very impressive actually.
